Illustrate class/object inheritance

C

Christoph Boget

I have two classes. One is a parent class with defined operations. The
other is a child/derived class. Right now, I have a generalization arrow
going from the child to the parent and that's all good and fine. Well, for
the most part. Is there a way I can make it so that the operations defined
in the parent are inherited (in the diagram and/or, even better, the
properties) by the child? I've tried all the different arrows and I've also
tried setting up a realization link (from the child to parent) but nothing
seemed to work. Interestingly though, the realization link seems to work if
the "parent" is not a class but an interface.

Is this even possible? If so, how? I've not been able to glean much
information from either the help or various websites. The only thing that
has come up w/r/t inheritance is information about diagramming databases in
Visio. :(

I'm using Visio 2003 if that matters.

thnx,
Christoph
